Redshift crashes at startup

[tdn]

I have redshift start when I log in.
It always crashes:
2011-11-22T16:44:40.798380+01:00 malbec.vineyard.sikkerhed.org kernel: [ 71.730926] redshift[2688]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f215032e9c1 sp 00007fff1f69b490 error 4 in libgeoclue.so.0.0.0[7f2150324000+14000]

For some reason it keeps working though -- i.e. the redish color stays on the screen. (maybe because gtk-redshift stays up?)

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Hi,

In Ubuntu 12.04.2 it also crashes at start.

***********

$ redshift

(process:2403): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_instance_get_private: assertion `instance != NULL && instance->g_class != NULL' failed
Erreur de segmentation (core dumped)

**********

$ gtk-redshift

(process:2739): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_instance_get_private: assertion `instance != NULL && instance->g_class != NULL' failed

**********

Thanks if it can be fixed.

Regards,

You are probably missing the geoclue-hostip package.

See bug #868904.
